Description: Two closely related variants of human caldesmon have been identified which are different in their electrophoretic mobility and cellular distribution. The h-caldesmon variant (120-150kDa) is predominantly expressed in smooth muscle whereas l-caldesmon (70-80kDa) is found in non- muscle tissue and cells. Neither of the two variants has been detected in skeletal muscle. Caldesmon is a developmentally regulated protein involved in smooth muscle and non-muscle contraction.

Immunogen: Recombinant full-length human protein (CALD1/820) and crude human uterus extract (h-CALD) were used as the immunogen for the CAD antibody cocktail.

Storage: Store the CAD antibody cocktail at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
